Hi everyone,
I'm happy to announce that Ubuntu Furry Remix Lucid RC1 is here!

Karmic RC was released almost a year ago. My backups indicate that it was built on the 11th of March... just a day later than Linux 1.0 release back in 1994, and that, in turn, was just a day later than my birthday, lol... Lots of things changed since Karmic, among them:
- We have 6 new wallpapers, hooray! (but I want MOAR!!), 5 of them are Proudly Found Elsewhere.
- We have a Completely New Bootscreen (build around Completely New Engine)
- A new repository, with team-based permission system (I have no upload monopoly anymore)
- A Completely New Firefox Start Page! (not translatable anymore :P )
- Default settings were separated to a DEB package, you can install/remove them now
- A Completely New Screensaver! (thanks crazdfoxx, btw I still haven't figured out how to make it default)
- A Completely New GIMP Splash! (thanks ihara and Admc!)
- Updated login screen look
- Updated and improved Karmic icon set
- A Completely New Humanity-based Icon Set + even furrier non-default humanity-based icon set (included in the ISO)
- Theming port to Nokia! (thanks Admc!)
- A Completely New Cricetida!
I'm looking forward to Natty changelog. What future may hold for us?
Respectfully,
